Hey everyone, i just joined up today...I've never owned a recumbent, and yesterday was the first time i got to try one. I'm looking for a recumbent that will be really fast for commuting that's around 1500-2500 dollar range...I tried the Bacchetta Giro26 and really liked that one, the only thing i didn't like was the weight (31lbs) the rans f5 seems to be a similar bike and only wieghs 25 pounds.....I guess i'm just having trouble figuring out what i should buy...whether i should go with a highracer or a lowracer.....I guess if someone could give me a list of what they think the top 5 bikes would be for speed/commuting that would be great.

and do the lowracers make a huge difference in speed?

Thanks everyone
